By Wycliff G; As Uganda prepares for the COVID-19 Pandemic lockdown lifting, the government has lined-up some essential sectors to be considered sooner than later.
Among these is the educational sector run by the Ministry of Education and Sports in stewardship of the first lady, Mrs. Janet Kataha Museveni.
However, considering that public and private transport will resume by next month, education has also been sighted to reopen within the same time scale but will be ready for a limited number of its beneficiaries.
During the Presidential COVID-19 address, H.E YK Museveni confirmed that education will resume by June,2, 2020 but for only candidate classes and finalists in Universities and tertiary institutions.
President Museveni said also said that Standard Operation Procedures (SOPs) must be key in observation among all education firms that are ready to reopen.
Earlier, education was priority to ease by President Museveni though the health safety of stakeholders was still skeptical to note as he appealed to the public to have more time in wait.
